Welcome to another bodacious bonus episode of Autistic Women Oversharing! This week, we were joined by a very special guest in the form of Holly Smale - bestselling author, co-creator of the hit Netflix show Geek Girl and autistic superhero - to talk about our autistic superpowers.
The Cold [Bean] War is upon us yet again. Before we do battle with coughing husbands, disobedient planes, and the forces of gravity, we must assemb...
Buckle up, terrible autistics, it’s the season finale! Sara, Elsa and Sarah put on their Very Special Episode hats and ruminate on the concept of oversharing: what it feels like to spill our guts, staying well fed during an accidental orgy and what to do if your hemorrhoid becomes sentient (stay calm and open Snapchat).
We’ll see you next season for even more oversharing. Until then, look after yourselves and each other, support ou...
Elsa's not here today! Left to improvise a co-host out of an octopus costume and a Cockney accent, Sara and Sarah get thoroughly weird about all the things they thought their autism would explain - but just turned out to be horrifying personal quirks. Learn how to lose friends and alienate people with tales of magical racist elves, cold baked beans and itchy teeth, and solve the locked room mystery of Andrew Hickey's eggy trousers.
We're finishing off the Autism Quotient this week and, spoiler alert, it doesn't get much better in the second half. Hear us cope with being boring, friendless autistics by: trying not to give people the stink eye during Teams meetings (Elsa), trying to go five minutes without mentioning we went to drama school (Sarah), and writing a post-watershed body-horror sitcom called Yoga Fart (who else but Sara?). At the end, we reveal our ...
It's a two-parter! This week, we're taking the first half of the Autism Quotient test together — and, in true Daily Tism fashion, absolutely ripping it to shreds. Unlike a certain autism researcher, we're asking all the right questions: What does it even mean to 'slightly disagree'? Did a single autistic person consult on this thing? And what kind of degenerate has a birthday picnic?
Can't get enough 'Tis...
This week, we're talking all about our worst fears. Expect country musicians, planes carried on the backs of angels, (bog) mummy issues, the prospect of going to Whitby, being bitten by Leslie Nielsen, and treacherous, treacherous mayonnaise.

Today, we're taking on all the social norms, cultural conventions and strange human rituals that we just can't quite crack. In this week's episode, Sara has a funerary Femininomenon, Sarah offers a scathing critique of the wedding industry, and Elsa educates her colleagues on the realities of childbirth. A very merry Special Day to all who celebrate!

From crying at the Colosseum to moonlighting as a cheese-slinging chatbot, it's a wonder we all went undiagnosed for so long. In this week's episode, recorded during one of our Patreon members-only live events, we talk about all the reasons we should have been identified sooner. And if you're looking for something to drink while you listen, might we recommend a strawberry milkshake lovingly handmade (read: mashed) by a small child?

The Daily Tism writers are back for another overshare-a-thon! In our latest bid to get ourselves cancelled, we're talking about our (deeply concerning) childhood special interests. Whether you spent your younger years dreaming of fame and fortune on the beauty pageant circuit, pondering deadly snake bites, or waiting for the Spice Girls to come and pick you up, you're in good company.

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
